“I carry a Louboutin purse and I love to flyfish… make my house look like that.”To many, this may seem like a puzzling description – but to an interior designer, this is a perfect statement of style. The best homes are the collected ones, ones that look as if someone has spent a lifetime collecting and surrounding themselves with their favorite things. Using the Louboutin/Flyfish as a mantra, our designer Erika created a home melding rustic outdoor elements with bits of glam and sparkle. Th...

Has this ever happened to you? You purchase a piece of clothing/bedding/furniture because it was inexpensive. Unfortunately, after a few times of wear/washing/usage, the item no longer looks/feels the same, in fact, it starts to fall apart quickly.There is absolutely nothing wrong with wanting to save money, but it’s important to know frugality doesn’t mean we should purchase cheap items.

(Whispers) Hello there, We meet again. This week we want to bring up something that's very important for everyone's sanity: Peace and Quiet... With the hustle and bustle of today's hectic life style, we understand how difficult it can be to quiet our minds. Do you find yourself feeling frustrated or agitated, even in the sanctity of your home?

Neutrals are making a comeback as people are taking a break from bold, bright colors. Beige has been given a bad rap as boring and safe but we can show you how to revamp colorless design in fresh, new ways! We can create stunning looks with neutrals by layering materials, playing with textures and adding shapes to a space!

As designers, we really appreciate when a great deal of thought is put into designing a piece of furniture. It has to look good from all angles! When a chair has that extra attention to detail it really stands out!

We
are back from High Point Market and eager to share the latest and greatest!
Channel style quilted furniture certainly caught our eye this October! It is a blend of
modern, clean lines but a little puffy and inviting at the same time!

For our third and final segment
on our icebreakers series, we will focus on unique art that is a real
conversation starter! While we love paintings and photographs, we are going to
focus on three dimensional art that will really make your walls feel alive and
get noticed!

This month's "Spotlight on Design" features another one of our talented and creative designers, Ashton Morgan, and a sampling of her beautiful designs! In her own words, Ashton will invite you to revisit the world of wall coverings and the gorgeous, modern selections available to you! If walls could talk… they would say they need attention too!

It is
fascinating to see how interior design and fashion follow the current economic
and political mood in our country! In a two part series, we will explore how the country’s economic
upswing is influencing furniture design and color, metal choices and material
selections. First, we will take a look at how furniture designers are trending
towards plush, tailored and richly hued fabrics!

Crystals, geodes and corals have been trending in design and
fashion for the past few years and instead of phasing out, have become even
more popular! It seems as though they have become the new way to incorporate a
layer of natural beauty into your interior design. We can now expand our
options of bringing the outdoors in by not only using plants and flowers, but
also using gems, rocks, geodes, agates and corals!
